Martin Rivero and the Colorado Rapids got their second bit of good news this weekend after X-ray tests on Rivero’s right foot proved to be not serious, he said.

Rivero said he was “calmer today” after having tests done on the same right foot he fractured in a preseason game that kept him off the field for four months. Rivero left Saturday’s game — eventually won by the Rapids 2-0 over visiting Chivas USA — just before halftime.

Rivero had a clear look of pain on his face, which he buried into his hands on the sideline after he took his right shoe. He limped to the lockerroom at halftime and then watched the second half through a window in Colorado’s weight room.

Rivero still has a screw in his foot, setting the bone. It might be what caused him enough pain to leave the game.
